Southwark Metal 90-26GA_7IN Round Duct Elbow 7 in 26 Ga

Product Description

The SOUTHWARK METAL 90-26GA_7IN is a 90-degree round sheet metal duct elbow fabricated from hot dip galvanized steel at 26 gauge. It is designed for use in low-pressure HVAC ductwork systems where directional airflow changes are required. The 7-inch diameter inlet and outlet make it a standard fit for residential and light commercial forced-air distribution runs. Fabricated to ACCA and SMACNA standards, this fitting delivers consistent dimensional tolerances and corrosion resistance appropriate for supply and return air applications. Licensed HVAC technicians and sheet metal contractors are the primary installers.

This elbow is suited for round duct systems in residential forced-air heating and cooling installations as well as light commercial HVAC applications. The 90-degree angle accommodates tight directional transitions within tight wall cavities, mechanical chases, and plenum spaces. With a 7-inch diameter on both the A and B ends, it connects directly to matching round duct, collars, and fittings without reducers. Installations conforming to SMACNA duct construction standards will find this fitting appropriate for Class 1 low-pressure duct systems.

Key Features

• 90-degree angle for standard directional duct transitions
• Hot dip galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in conditioned air systems
• 26-gauge material thickness meets SMACNA and ACCA fabrication standards
• Equal 7-inch diameter on both ends eliminates the need for transition fittings
• Round profile for use with standard round duct, collars, and spin-in fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style round duct fitting compatible with 7-inch diameter round ductwork systems built to ACCA and SMACNA standards for low-pressure forced-air HVAC applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified sheet metal contractor in accordance with SMACNA duct construction standards and local mechanical codes. De-energize the air handling system before making duct connections. Secure the elbow to adjoining duct sections using sheet metal screws and seal all joints with UL-listed foil tape or mastic sealant to maintain system pressure integrity. Avoid sharp deformation of the fitting during handling, as gauge deformation can affect fit and airflow performance.
